I couldn't enjoy the spring weather, which shone like a well-cut diamond, and summer is just around the corner. It's better to enjoy the night in Seoul these days than during the day. The slightly lower temperature and the sparkling lights of the shop exude a romantic mood. Let's take a look at 5 of the hottest date spots in Seoul these days that combine sensuous interiors and delicious food to make a date even more successful.
1. Italian dining that only I want to know, “Meladimore†in Songpa

Meladimore is turning visitors into loyal customers one after another and is becoming a hot flow in Seokchon. This is fine dining by Chef Lim Tae-woo, who has gained experience in Italy. It's a small space that can accommodate about 10 people with die-shaped bar seats, so it's a great place to have a quiet conversation. The course changes every season, and the kind explanations with maps open my heart. If it's an anniversary, they also offer a congratulatory message service, so be sure to check it out.

Located on Solbitseom, it is a place where you can enjoy wine and dining while enjoying a panoramic view of the Han River. Reservations are very intense, as is the view. The feeling is different when the sun is out, when it's at sunset, and when it's completely dark, so I recommend entering before sunset. I like seafood dishes that go well with white wine, but I recommend “flounder carpaccio,†which has a sweet and sour flavor, as a starter.

A steakhouse located at the entrance to Seorae Village. The exterior, decorated in dark blue and gold, gives it a formal yet clean feel. Aiming to popularize porterhouse steak, where you can enjoy both sirloin and tenderloin, they are offering a steak course at a reasonable price. The well-grilled steak is full of buttery flavor and has a rich meat flavor; the sirloin part is chewy, and the tenderloin part has a soft, melt-in-your-mouth flavor.

There is a set menu for two, and I recommend it because it's hearty and good value for money. The sirloin is juicy and very tender.

A bar located on the top floor of Sofitel, which is popular these days. When you walk through the space-themed hallway and walk into the store, you are amazed by the high floors and the night view of Seoul seen through the glass windows. Signature cocktails, craft beers, and simple chef-recommended snacks are available. Events such as DJ performances and whiskey dinners are also held on a regular basis.

A must-visit place for any dessert lover couple who loves sweets. Gamdo, located in the basement of Seongsu D Tower, is a space that aims to be a 'fine dessert cafe'. The plating desserts collaborated with Chef Lee Eun-ah's Dessert Kitchen UNAS are excellent in terms of plating, taste, and unique expression. It's even better to enjoy it with coffee made from specialty grade beans brought from Micro Rat Farm.
